Sociology degree help!!!

Hey sasha2200

I studied Sociology at undergraduate level and at postgraduate level. I studied it because I loved it.

I appreciate that Sociology can get a bad rep sometimes, but I think you should go to uni to study a subject your passionate about and enjoy rather than if people will see you as smart.

Doing a Sociology degree consists of a lot of theories and concepts. In terms of stress, I would say a lot of degrees can be stressful because of the adaption to the workload.

These are some jobs that some of our sociology graduates have gone in to: social work or some other kind of public sector welfare employment such as the probation service, the social services and wider caring professions; the civil service and local and national government; teaching and lecturing; third sector advocacy; think tanks and policy development; the police and criminal justice system; human resource management; media and creative industries; health promotion and public health; business and finance; ICT development; environmental campaigning; and international development.

Sociology is a humanities subject, much like History or English. These degrees offer transferable skills as well the specialist knowldge you acquire from studying them.

I hope you find this helpful.

Good luck with whatever you do and let me know if I can assist you further.
